Intel NUC8i7HNK does not boot 18.04 or 18.10 installation images

[Tabor Kelly]

I have an Intel NUC8i7HNK and none of the Ubuntu or Debian images that I have tried get past GRUB. I have tried Ubuntu Server 18.04.1 as well as the latest Ubuntu 18.10 nightly. After selecting any installation method in GRUB the screen goes black. Things that I have tried that did not help:
- removing quiet from the kernel command-line
- removing quiet and adding nomodeset
- removing quiet and adding nomodeset, earlyprintk=vga,keep, debug, and ignore_loglevel

Installation images that do not boot, with notes on kernel version:
- Ubuntu Server 18.04 (4.15.?)
- Ubuntu 18.10 nightly (4.15.?)
- Debian Stretch/9.5.0 (4.9.110)
- Latest Debian Buster alpha release (4.16.12)
- Debian Buster nightly (4.17.8)

I noticed that Arch 2018.08.01, which is running 4.17.11, does boot.

I did update to the latest version of the BIOS (48).
